Drew Barrymore’s Make Up Free Face Has People Talking

In a world of contouring, filters, and photoshop, Hollywood icon Drew Barrymore, 43, is keeping it real by posting a photo of her half made up face.

The photograph illustrates a few points: one, celebrities are like us, they have uneven skin tone and eye bags, two, a highly skilled makeup artist is in fact, an artist and three, Barrymore who has spent her entire life in the public eye since starring in ET as a child, knows how to work the publicity machine, as she also promoting her beauty line Flower Beauty.

“A full face of @flowerbeauty,” she wrote in the caption.

She also went on to praise the makeup artist @nikkietutorials, who did the makeover.

“I love her and when you live in the beauty world, she is a rock star! Getting to do this with her, where she famously does her half face make up is so cool.

“Ps Nikkie! I wish I could have preserved this look forever! I cry as I am washing your make up off every time!”

We could be cynical about Barrymore’s attempt to flog her products, however, her Instagram page is full of makeup-free selfies, which makes us want to be her best friend and ironically, buy her products.
